Market Overview - The bond market is expected to continue fluctuating, while A-shares remain optimistic, emphasizing the support from risk appetite and liquidity [1] - The Hong Kong stock market is also anticipated to rise in the short term, with oil prices expected to remain weak and a positive outlook for gold prices [1] Economic Indicators - In the U.S., the July employment data fell short of expectations, leading to increased recession trading and rising expectations for a rate cut in September [1] - In China, the manufacturing PMI for July was below expectations, with weak new and export orders, while the construction PMI slowed due to adverse weather conditions [1][2] Market Strategy - Following the Politburo meeting, the sentiment around "anti-involution" trading has cooled, leading to a decline in risk appetite in the capital markets [1] - The bond market showed signs of stabilization with a recovery in long-term yields, while short-term fluctuations are expected to continue due to ongoing policy expectations [1] A-share Market - Since July, the A-share market has shown strong performance, with the Shanghai Composite Index reaching 3600 points for the first time this year [2] - Despite a weakening macro environment, the market is expected to maintain a strong position, with a focus on performance during the mid-year reporting period and market rotation characteristics [2] Hong Kong Stock Market - At the end of July, sentiment in the Hong Kong stock market began to decline, with limited value for investment [2] - However, the recent decline in U.S. employment data may temporarily benefit the funding conditions for non-U.S. markets [2] Commodity Outlook - Oil demand is expected to remain weak, with ongoing supply releases putting downward pressure on prices [3] - Gold is likely to perform well in the short term due to recession and rate cut expectations, alongside uncertainties from tariffs and doubts about the dollar's credibility [3]

Report Industry Investment Ratings - Crude oil: ★☆★, indicating a bullish bias but limited trading opportunities on the market [5] - Fuel oil & Low-sulfur fuel oil: ☆☆☆, suggesting a short-term equilibrium state with poor market operability and a wait-and-see approach [5] - Asphalt: ★★★, representing a clearer bullish trend and relatively appropriate investment opportunities currently [5] - LPG: ☆☆☆, showing a short-term equilibrium state with poor market operability and a wait-and-see approach [5] Report's Core View - The crude oil market showed a pattern of rising first and then falling last week. The market risk sentiment declined due to the lower-than-expected US non-farm payroll data in July. Although OPEC+ decided to increase production in September, it could only partially hedge certain risks, and the oil price is expected to be volatile and bullish after the recent correction. The fuel oil and low-sulfur fuel oil markets are facing weak fundamentals, and their cracking spreads are expected to remain weak. The asphalt supply increase space is neutral, demand needs to be repaired, and the low inventory supports the price, with its trend mainly following that of crude oil. The LPG market has a relatively loose supply, and the downside space of the spot price is limited [2][3][4] Summary by Related Catalogs Crude Oil - Last week, the Brent 10 contract rose 2.84% and the SC09 contract rose 2.92%. The US July non-farm payroll data was lower than expected, and the data for May and June were significantly revised downward, causing the market risk sentiment to decline. OPEC+ decided to increase production by 547,000 barrels per day in September to fully exit the 2.2 million barrels per day batch production cut, which can only partially hedge some risks. The oil price is expected to be volatile and bullish after the recent correction, and attention should be paid to the implementation of the extension of Sino-US reciprocal tariffs before the August 12 deadline [2] Fuel Oil & Low-sulfur Fuel Oil - Crude oil led the decline in oil futures, and the fuel oil series trended lower. The low-sulfur fuel oil cracking continued to decline. The arrival volume in the Singapore market increased significantly in July, and the ship refueling demand lacked support after the peak season. The ship refueling volume in Fujairah has been weakening month-on-month since June. Due to the weak fundamentals of the high and low-sulfur fuel oil markets and the support of crude oil's peak-season demand and geopolitics, the cracking spreads of FU and LU are expected to remain weak [2] Asphalt - The inflow of Venezuelan crude oil into China increased by 3.8% in July. The impact of the diversion of Venezuelan oil resources flowing to North Asia after Chevron was approved to conduct oil business in Venezuela needs to be observed. The production plan in August decreased compared to July, but some Sinopec refineries' actual production exceeded the plan for two consecutive months. The demand recovery in South China was delayed, and the rigid demand in the North was also weak. The sample refinery's shipment volume increased slightly month-on-month, and the cumulative year-on-year increase was stable. The refinery inventory destocking slowed down, and the social inventory increased slightly. The overall commercial inventory increased slightly month-on-month but remained at a relatively low level in recent years. The supply increase space of asphalt is considered neutral for now, and the actual production release of major refineries needs to be tracked. The demand is in a weak state and needs to be repaired, and the low inventory supports the price. The BU trend mainly follows that of crude oil with limited fluctuation space [3] LPG - The Middle East CP was significantly reduced, but the spot discount shrank. Attention should be paid to the accumulation of export surplus pressure under OPEC's production increase. The chemical profit margin stabilized due to the decline in the finished product end, and the PDH operating rate is still rising, providing bottom support for domestic demand. The supply is relatively loose with the overall increase in the arrival volume in July, and the refinery gas may continue to follow the decline in import costs. The market price maintains a low ratio to oil, and the downside space of the spot price is relatively limited after the rapid decline [4]

1. Report Industry Investment Ratings - Crude oil: ★☆★ (Indicates a bias towards a long position, with a driving force for price increase, but limited operability on the trading floor) [5] - Fuel oil & Low - sulfur fuel oil: ☆☆☆ (The short - term long/short trend is in a relatively balanced state, and the current trading floor has poor operability, suggesting to wait and see) [5] - Asphalt: ★★★ (Indicates a clearer long - position trend, and there is still a relatively appropriate investment opportunity currently) [5] - LPG: ☆☆☆ (The short - term long/short trend is in a relatively balanced state, and the current trading floor has poor operability, suggesting to wait and see) [5] 2. Core Viewpoints - The overall energy market is affected by multiple factors such as supply, demand, and geopolitical situations. Different energy products show different trends and investment opportunities [2][3][4] 3. Summary by Related Catalogs Crude oil - Last week, the crude oil market rose first and then fell. Brent 10 contract still closed up 2.84%, and SC09 contract rose 2.92%. US July non - farm payrolls data was lower than expected, and data for May and June were significantly revised down. OPEC + 8 voluntary production - cut countries decided to increase production by 547,000 barrels per day in September. This week, after the oil price correction, it is temporarily regarded as oscillating strongly. Attention should be paid to the implementation of the extension of Sino - US reciprocal tariffs before the August 12 deadline [2] Fuel oil & Low - sulfur fuel oil - Crude oil led the decline in oil - related futures. The fuel oil series trended lower, and the low - sulfur fuel oil crack spread continued to decline. The arrival volume in the Singapore market increased significantly in July, and the bunker fuel demand in Fujeirah has been weakening month - on - month since June. The crack spreads of FU and LU are expected to continue the weak trend [2] Asphalt - In July, the inflow of Venezuelan crude oil into China increased by 3.8% month - on - month. The August production plan decreased compared with July, but some Sinopec refineries' actual production exceeded the plan for two consecutive months. Demand recovery in South China was delayed, and northern demand was also weak. The overall commercial inventory increased slightly month - on - month but remained at a relatively low level in recent years. The BU trend mainly follows the direction of crude oil, but the fluctuation range is limited [3] LPG - The Middle East CP was significantly lowered, but the spot discount shrank. The chemical profit margin stabilized due to the decline in the finished product end. The PDH operating rate is still rising, and domestic demand has bottom - level support. The supply side is relatively loose, and refinery gas may continue to follow the decline in import costs. The downside space of the spot is relatively limited after the rapid decline [4]

Report Summary 1) Report Industry Investment Rating No investment rating information is provided in the report. 2) Core View of the Report - Overnight crude oil stopped falling and rebounded, maintaining a narrow sideways oscillation with a downward - shifting center of fluctuation and low market activity. The support below the market comes from the consumption peak season, but the support from the demand side is weakening in both time and space dimensions [3]. - The operating logic of the crude oil market has not changed, and the market is in the adjustment phase after the sharp fluctuations caused by geopolitical events. It is still supported by peak - season demand, and recent trade agreements between the US and other countries and economies have boosted the macro - sentiment [3]. - There is a lack of clear guidance in the news of the crude oil market recently. Next week is a macro super - week with multiple important meetings, including China - US economic and trade negotiations, the Politburo meeting, the Fed's interest - rate meeting, etc. Attention should be paid to the possibility of positive news from the China - US economic and trade negotiations and the reaction of the crude oil market after OPEC+ increases production in September [3]. - Currently, the crude oil market is in a narrow - range adjustment phase. The demand - side support is limited as the seasonal effect fades. Next week's macro - dynamics may bring new guidance to the crude oil market [3]. 3) Summary by Relevant Catalogs Market Dynamics - Iran and three European countries (the UK, France, and Germany) started a new round of nuclear negotiations in Istanbul on July 25. This is their first meeting since the cease - fire in June, and the deputy - foreign - minister - level talks will be held behind closed doors [4]. - In June, China's naphtha imports reached a new high at 1.6081 million tons, a month - on - month increase of 7.61% and a year - on - year increase of 51.12%. The high - level imports in the second quarter were driven by supply and cost factors. The production in the second quarter was 47.0415 million tons, a 2.35% decrease from the first quarter, and the price of imported naphtha was more competitive due to the previous decline in crude oil prices. The average import price in June was $577.54 per ton, the lowest of the year [5]. - Oil loading at two major Russian Black Sea ports has been suspended due to new port - entry safety regulations. The situation is expected to be resolved in one or two days [5].

Report Industry Investment Rating - No information provided in the given content Core Viewpoints - Overnight crude oil continued to decline slightly, maintaining a narrow sideways range with a slightly lower fluctuation center. During the overnight US trading session, crude oil rebounded from its intraday low, mainly influenced by a report from a British media outlet that the US and Europe are close to reaching a 15% tariff agreement. Driven by this news, US stocks and crude oil strengthened simultaneously. While US stocks reached new highs, crude oil also gradually recovered its intraday losses. In the recent adjustment process, long positions in overseas crude oil have significantly decreased, and market bullish sentiment has continued to cool. Over the past two weeks, crude oil has shown characteristics of declining on increased volume. Although the overall trading volume remains low, when trading volume moderately increases, daily candles close lower, indicating that in the current market's long - short game, even with limited intensity, prices tend to decline, presenting an overall weakening and volatile pattern. On the support side, the lower support mainly relies on the logic of the consumption peak season, but the support from the demand side to the market has weakened both in terms of time and space, and there are no new positive drivers in the market. In this context, if there are no new positive factors, crude oil prices may turn downward [3] Market Dynamics US Inventory Data - For the week ending July 18, 2025, US EIA crude oil inventory decreased by 3.169 million barrels, compared with an expected decrease of 1.565 million barrels and a previous decrease of 3.859 million barrels. Strategic petroleum reserve inventory decreased by 200,000 barrels, compared with a previous decrease of 300,000 barrels. Cushing crude oil inventory increased by 455,000 barrels, compared with a previous increase of 213,000 barrels. Gasoline inventory decreased by 1.738 million barrels, compared with an expected decrease of 908,000 barrels and a previous increase of 3.399 million barrels. Refined oil inventory increased by 2.931 million barrels, compared with an expected decrease of 1.135 million barrels and a previous increase of 4.173 million barrels. Crude oil production decreased by 102,000 barrels to 13.273 million barrels per day. Commercial crude oil imports were 5.976 million barrels per day, a decrease of 403,000 barrels per day from the previous week. Crude oil exports increased by 337,000 barrels per day to 3.855 million barrels per day. Refinery utilization rate was 95.5%, compared with an expected 93.4% and a previous 93.9%. Last week, US crude oil inventory continued to decline for the second consecutive week, effectively alleviating previous market concerns about inventory accumulation. US crude oil inventory remains at the bottom of the five - year range, providing strong support for oil prices. Meanwhile, US gasoline and diesel inventories showed a divergent trend: gasoline inventory decreased by 1.738 million barrels, while diesel inventory increased by 455,000 barrels. Although diesel inventory increased slightly, due to the relatively low overall inventory base, there will be no obvious pressure to build inventory in the short term [4] International Trade and Supply - related News - The EU and the US are on the verge of reaching a trade agreement that will impose a 15% tariff on European imported goods, similar to the agreement Trump reached with Japan this week [5] - In May, Saudi Arabia's non - oil exports increased by 6.0%, while crude oil export value decreased by 21.8% year - on - year, and commodity exports decreased by 14.0% year - on - year [5] - Due to changes in port entry regulations, oil transportation in Russia's Black Sea has been disrupted. Oil loading at two major Russian Black Sea terminals has been suspended due to paperwork related to new port - entry safety regulations. An industry insider expects the situation to be resolved within one or two days [5] Geopolitical News - Iranian Deputy Foreign Minister: Iran will respond to the activation of the "rapid restoration of sanctions" mechanism. On July 23 local time, Iranian Deputy Foreign Minister Gharehabadi stated that European countries (UK, France, Germany) should not coordinate positions with the US. Iran will respond to the activation of the "rapid restoration of sanctions" mechanism and is still discussing whether to withdraw from the "Treaty on the Non - Proliferation of Nuclear Weapons". He also mentioned that Iran has agreed to an International Atomic Energy Agency technical delegation visiting Tehran in the next two to three weeks [6] Global Crude Oil盘面 Price and Spread Changes | | 2025 - 07 - 24 | 2025 - 07 - 23 | 2025 - 07 - 17 | Daily Change | Weekly Change | | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | | Brent Crude M + 2 | 68.8 | 68.51 | 69.52 | 0.29 | - 0.72 | | WTI Crude M + 2 | 64.79 | 64.49 | 66.23 | 0.3 | - 1.44 | | SC Crude M + 2 | 498.8 | 498.1 | 502.9 | 0.7 | - 4.1 | | Dubai Crude M + 2 | 67.85 | 67.61 | 66.89 | 0.24 | 0.96 | | Oman Crude M + 2 | 70.7 | 70.72 | 69.99 | - 0.02 | 0.71 | | Murban Crude M + 2 | 71.36 | 70.89 | 69.81 | 0.47 | 1.55 | | EFS Spread M + 2 | 0.66 | 0.98 | 1.63 | - 0.32 | - 0.97 | | Brent Monthly Spread (M + 2 - M + 3) | 0.68 | 0.82 | 0.98 | - 0.14 | - 0.3 | | Oman Monthly Spread (M + 2 - M - 3) | 1.72 | 1.98 | 0.98 | - 0.26 | 0.74 | | Dubai Monthly Spread (M + 1 - M + 2) | 0.69 | 0.66 | 0.94 | 0.03 | - 0.25 | | SC Monthly Spread (M + 1 - M + 2) | 5.8 | 7 | 11.1 | - 1.2 | - 5.3 | | SC - Dubai (M + 2) | 1.9378 | 1.877 | 3.7858 | 0.0608 | - 1.848 | | SC - Oman (M + 2) | - 1.1022 | - 1.033 | 0.6158 | - 0.0692 | - 1.718 | [7]

Industry Investment Rating - No information provided Core Viewpoints - PTA is expected to move in a volatile manner, with cost being the dominant factor. The polyester industry chain is currently facing weak demand and is expected to fluctuate with costs. PX, PTA, and PR are all expected to oscillate. (PX view score: 0, PTA view score: 0, PR view score: 0) [2] Summary by Directory Price Information - **Upstream Products**: On July 22, 2025, WTI crude oil futures settled at $65.31 per barrel, down 2.81% from the previous value; Brent crude oil futures settled at $68.59 per barrel, down 0.90%. Naphtha spot price (CFR Japan) was $566.38 per ton, down 1.13%. The spot price of isomeric xylene (FOB South Korea) was $715.00 per ton, down 0.35% [1]. - **PTA Products**: CZCE TA main - contract closed at 4,794 yuan per ton on July 22, 2025, up 0.29%; the settlement price was 4,772 yuan per ton, down 0.08%. The spot price of domestic PTA was 4,775 yuan per ton, down 0.52%. The CCFEI price index of domestic PTA was 4,772 yuan per ton, down 0.21%, and the outer - market index was $630 per ton, up 0.48% [1]. - **PX Products**: CZCE PX main - contract closed at 6,886 yuan per ton on July 22, 2025, up 0.35%; the settlement price was 6,852 yuan per ton, up 0.03%. The domestic spot price of p - xylene remained unchanged at 6,719 yuan per ton. The PXN spread was $276.62 per ton, up 2.66%, and the PX - MX spread was $128.00 per ton, up 2.54% [1]. - **PR Products**: CZCE PR main - contract closed at 5,996 yuan per ton on July 22, 2025, up 0.20%; the settlement price was 5,980 yuan per ton, up 0.07%. The market price of polyester bottle chips in the East China market was 5,990 yuan per ton, down 0.17%, and in the South China market, it remained unchanged at 6,030 yuan per ton [1]. - **Downstream Products**: On July 22, 2025, the CCFEI price index of polyester staple fiber was 6,580 yuan per ton, down 0.15%; the index of bottle - grade chips was 5,990 yuan per ton, down 0.17%. Other downstream product price indices remained unchanged [2]. Operating Conditions - On July 22, 2025, the operating rate of PX in the polyester industry chain was 77.74%, unchanged; the PTA factory load rate was 80.59%, unchanged; the polyester factory load rate was 87.01%, up 0.21%; the bottle - chip factory load rate was 71.93%, unchanged; and the load rate of Jiangsu and Zhejiang looms was 58.02%, unchanged [1]. Production and Sales - On July 22, 2025, the sales rate of polyester filament was 105%, up 55 percentage points; the sales rate of polyester staple fiber was 48%, up 8 percentage points; and the sales rate of polyester chips was 82%, up 11 percentage points [1]. Device Information - Dongying United's 2.5 - million - ton PTA device was under maintenance from June 28 for 40 - 45 days. Yisheng Hainan's 2 - million - ton PTA device is expected to undergo technical transformation for three months starting from August 1 [2]. Important News - Macroeconomic sentiment has pressured oil prices downward. Fitch has downgraded the outlook for some US industries in 2025. PTA will have new device put into production in the third quarter, creating a mismatch with PX. Currently, PX inventory is at a historical low, providing strong support. The future profitability of PX depends on unexpected factors. The unexpected situation of the reforming device has changed the current dull fundamentals, but during the off - season of polyester consumption, there is a strong expectation of a decline in downstream operating rates after the significant drop in PTA processing fees [2]. Summary - PTA futures rose during the day, while the average spot price fell. The anti - involution expectation is favorable for the commodity market, but the crude oil market was weak during the session. PTA supply is sufficient, and the spot basis has weakened. PTA processing fees are in a low - level range, and unplanned device maintenance is difficult to boost prices due to new device production expectations on the supply side and lackluster demand during the off - season. In July, polyester factories actually carried out maintenance, and the operating rate decreased significantly compared to June. The macro - impact on the polyester industry chain has weakened, and it has returned to fundamental drivers. The weakening supply - demand expectation has led to a full - line decline in prices. Entering the off - season of textile and clothing, if polyester deepens production cuts in the future, the industry chain contradictions will intensify, making it more difficult for prices to rise. In terms of industry chain profits, the strong driving force of the cost side has caused the profit distribution pattern of the industry chain to tilt towards raw materials again [2]. Trading Strategy - PTA fluctuated higher, with the TA2509 contract closing at 4,794 yuan per ton (up 0.38%) and an intraday trading volume of 1.08 million lots; PX prices increased, with the PX2509 contract closing at 6,886 yuan per ton (up 0.53%) and an intraday trading volume of 204,600 lots; PR followed the cost trend, with the 2509 contract closing at 5,996 yuan per ton (up 0.33%) and an intraday trading volume of 52,600 lots. In the overnight crude oil market, concerns about potential trade frictions between major oil - consuming countries the US and the EU and the upcoming OPEC production meeting in September led to a third - consecutive - day decline in European and American crude oil futures. The current demand in the polyester industry chain is not optimistic, and it is expected that PX, PTA, and PR will all oscillate [2].
